Five DIY Hardwood Floor Repairs You Can Do

While hardwood floors give a home a sense of elegance and coziness, they can also get damaged and worn with time. To maintain the best-looking hardwood floors, try these five easy-to-do DIY fixes:

1. Restoring the Scratches

Small scratches can be quickly fixed using a blending pencil or wood stain marker that complements the color of the floor. Deeper scratches can be filled in with wood filler, lightly sanded, and finished with a stain that matches.

2. Changing Out Damaged Boards

You can repair a severely damaged board if you have one. Using a circular saw, remove the broken board before installing the replacement plank. Use adhesive or flooring nails to secure it, then stain and seal it to blend with the surrounding area.

3. Filling in the Gaps

Gaps between floorboards can be caused by seasonal variations. Use wood putty or rope filler for small gaps. After applying the filler, wipe away any excess. Larger gaps may require the insertion of a precisely bonded and sanded wood sliver.

4. Removing Scuffs

A little elbow grease can frequently be used to eliminate scuff marks. After making a paste out of baking soda and water, use a soft cloth to gently rub the scuff mark. A fine steel wool pad can be used gently to scuffs that are more difficult so as not to scratch the floor.

5. Getting Rid of Water Stains

Hardwood flooring might lose its attractiveness due to water stains. Using a gentle cloth, apply a vinegar and water mixture to light stains to eliminate them. If the stain is darker, try lightly rubbing the area with a cloth soaked in hydrogen peroxide, letting it dry, and then applying a wood finish that matches.

In summary

Hardwood floor maintenance doesn't always need expert assistance. You can prolong the life of your flooring and keep them looking great with these easy do-it-yourself fixes. Your hardwood floors will continue to be a beautiful feature of your house with regular maintenance and prompt repairs.
